She’s the former Married At First Sight star who is expecting her first child with boyfriend Neil Goldsmith.

Mother’s instinct kicking in? Former Married At First Sight star Carly Bowyer has revealed how she already knew she was pregnant before taking a test
She claimed she had noticed her body was subtly changing, and also had a hunch about the gender of her child.
But Carly admitted that her intuition was actually wrong.
She explained that her doctor accidentally revealed her child’s gender during a routine scan, and it was the opposite of what she and Neil were expecting.
Excited: ‘I knew that I was pregnant before I even missed my period and took a pregnancy test, it was really weird,’ she told 9Now
‘I was just in pure shock. Not because of disappointment, but just because of surprise,’ she said.
Carly did not disclose her child’s gender to 9Now.
She also revealed she had experienced bizarre symptoms during the early months of her pregnancy – namely constipation.
‘I’ve got so much to be thankful for’: Earlier this month, the former reality TV star revealed she is is now halfway through her pregnancy and shared a photo of herself at her 20-week scan (pictured)
‘I wasn’t expecting being constipated for the first three months. Apparently it is quite common, but it’s one of those things that maybe the pregnant women aren’t talking about,’ she said.
Carly first announced her pregnancy in June.
She shared a post to Instagram of herself and Neil holding an ultrasound scan, and wrote: ‘In what’s been a crazy 2020, we see a little baby light at the end of the tunnel. We’re over the moon, and can’t wait to meet our little Biscuit.’
Fans will remember Carly from the 2018 season of Married At First Sight.
She was partnered with ice cream entrepreneur Justin Fischer and later dated another groom, Troy Delmege, for several months.
